Pretty much.

Yeah, this is not a good sign  

It's a good thing we have too many pitching prospects.

Might as well send Hansen along for the group discount. Better yet have them rest for another year before surgery. 

Sometimes I wonder what the hell has happened to the training staff over the last year.  Never seen so many strange occurrences.

We are due for Burger to tear his Achilles for the 3rd time next right?

Which free agent pitchers will we not target next offseason...?

Eliminating Cole, Verlander and Sale, that leaves us with basically Porcello, Bumgarner, Z. Wheeler or “buying/renting” Greinke from the DBacks If they underperform this year.

Not to mention extending Rodon, If actually healthy, seems like an improbable exercise in futility.  But Hahn’s a master contract negotiator, right?

The big club has still been pretty healthy. I wonder if it’s just increased attention on young guys that makes it seem worse

Washington/Rizzo looking better everyday on that Eaton trade, with Soto and Robles still in-house and the money to spend on Corbin.

Well, as that’s pretty much 90% of our current rebuild strategy, along with the Robert acquisition...makes sense.

This off-season is kind of a downer.

Can Eloy pitch too?

I'm just about ready to put Eloy in bubble wrap.

Understatement of the year?  Even Reds’ fans are pretty excited, at least for now.

Save some for Robert, Cease and Madrigal...

Ugh.  This looks like more mismanagement.  I'm not a doctor, but at this point it really seems like this should have been done over the summer.  What a bummer.  

 

Edit:  I don't know, maybe that isn't fair, but I'm extra skeptical of this team's competence right now.

At the very least, over the offseason.

If he’s on the Burdi track, you’re talking 20-22 months...in the middle of 2021.  And it’s not like he has dominating TOR stuff, so his command needs to be pinpoint to be effective.

The 6 big names of the Eaton / Sale trades.... Lopez is the only one that looks to be 100% on track.   And maybe I'm stretching it there.

Victor Diaz’s health might be the worst of the bunch...

it's a bad thing that they're White Sox pitching prospects

...How were you not able to tell that was intentional?
